I don't know who does GoWesty's work, but Phil Eslin in Albuquerque has been rebuilding throttle bodies for several years and does a beautiful job. Everything he does in beautiful--a perfectionist. Search for him on the samba under the "name" whip618--search for that. Also, TenCentLife has newly redesigned replacements. $$$$$ But he does beautiful work, too. (For 2.1s) Richard
